*Imagine a female singer, such a Chibi from The Birthday Massacre, as the lead singer*
**This song was inspired by both Creature Feature and The Birthday Massacre, two morbid bands that I'm fond of**

Dread Lane


Chorus:/ In the shadow/ I can see it/ Creepin' down my arm. Out the window/ I can feel it/ Rise into the stars. Passion has left me (left me)/ Broke in and shook me (shook me)/ Until you found me (found me) empty (cast out!).

Watch the roses fall/ Petals in the lake/ Everybody hears their call to wake. And now they see you (need you)/ Want you (need you)/ Coming for you (gonna eat you)/ Better run (run away) from your life.

See that kid?/ (Yeah...)/ Better stop him../ He'll befriend his devils.../

Chorus

Run from your life...

Wow, you have thought alot about this. Really good! I can imagine listening to it. I guess the only way to make it better would be to add a second or third verse. Otherwise, that was awesome!

I'm single because God is busy writing the best love story.

Take out all of what's in bold and the song will be okay.



Chorus:/ In the shadow/ I can see it/ Creepin' down my arm. Out the window/ I can feel it/ Rise into the stars. Passion has left me (left me)/ Broke in and shook me (shook me)/ Until you found me (found me) empty (cast out!). {the chorus is all one, steady rhythm; mainly drums. Background singer(s) are always a beat after the lead and do not overlap.}

*10-15 second instrumental*

Watch {drag out the "ah" sound with a higher note} the roses fall/ Petals {drag out the "eh" sound} in the lake/ Everybody hears their call to wake. And now they see you (need you)/ Want you (need you)/ Coming for you (gonna eat you)/ Better run (run away) from your life.

*short instrumental*

See that kid? {skip a beat} (Yeah...)/ Better stop him../ *low pitched growl* / He'll befriend his devils.../

Chorus

*instrumental fade out*

{whisper after fade out} Run from your life...


I may be alone on this thought, but I find it a little annoying when people write things like this in lyrics.

I have to agree with Liesonlies! The lyrics are really good and that's what we're focusing on here and telling us what's gonna happen with the song (although I get why you've done it) is a little distracting and confusing. But other than that the lyrics are really good! I can even sense a Paramore kind of feel to it... anywyas, keep writing!xxx
